And then there were 10

Previously, I started the 100:10:1 method
for choosing projects.
Now it’s time to choose 10 and start prototyping.

The idea is to get these 10 prototypes done in 6 months.
That’s a prototype completion every 18.26 days.
To help me keep on track, @icco and I are going to
have weekly checkins (it might help him too, who knows).

So here are the 10 I’ve chosen:

dogetipbot for zulip or maybe slack

scott pilgrim vs the world twitter bot

a photo management website

a dota2 api collector / analyzer site

a redis hosting website

a twitter snowflake clone for random strings

b2 api library (backblaze)

a reverse terminal for presentations

(website) an artisinal http response website

noli (lisp with no parens)

I may implement some of the smaller and easier ideas (e.g. letter api) for fun,
but that won’t specifically be a part of this project.

There were also a couple of ideas that were REALLY close to making the short
list, but in the end they were either too complicated or too related to another
idea to make it.
I may make these in the future, but for now I’ll do related things to learn the
pieces I don’t yet know.

Too complicated

dogemail (email where you have to pay doge to the recipient to reduce spam)

three factor authentication

a sneeze tracking website (I sneeze so much this would have complicated scalability issues)
